Local dive, with AMAZING cheeseburgers, often ranked the top in the city. Over 100 years old! Off the beaten path local place, cheap, CASH only! Typically a large lunch crowd, not open late so check their hours. This is an INDY GEM if you are looking for a local non-chain option. (Not kid-friendly, you must be 21 to enter.)

Great food (Belgium/European influenced) Historic building that has been transformed into a really nice restaurant. Outstanding outdoor space. I imagine it will be very popular for people attending events at Banker's Life Fieldhouse since it's right next door. Food is really good, and they have a ton of beer options.

It's a chain, *yawn* however a somewhat local chain. In the same building as Market Table, a much cheaper brunch option. Food is very good and the portions are ridiculous, five egg omelet anyone?

Lots of options here, especially for international cuisine! If you do go, make sure to follow parking payment options! Some/most of the parking is not city-sanctioned but by a private company and I've gotten a parking ticket! I suggest using city "Park Mobile" spaces on Mass Ave versus the private lots at The Garage.

They have a variety of classes open to members and non-members alike. For non-members, a day pass is $15 and a week pass is $30.
